Let’s do the wave.

The wave equation

Where

c is the speed of light, 3.00 x 108 m/s

is the wavelength (the symbol, lambda, is the Greek “l” for length) and

is the frequency (the symbol, nu, is the Greek “n”)

c=

Please notice:

• Wavelength and frequency are inversely related.

• When wavelength increases, frequency decreases.

• Q: What is the frequency of light that has a wavelength of 570 nm(5.7x10-7m)?


• c=


• c==c/


• c==c/=(3.00x108m/s) / (5.7x10-7m)


• c==c/=(3.00x108m/s) / (5.7x10-7m)

• 5.3 x 1014 /s =5.3 x 1014 Hz

Next: Planck’s equation

• The energy of a photon is directly related to its frequency

E=h• where

• E is the energy (in Joules),

• is the frequency (in waves/s, or Hz), and

• h is the conversion factor, Planck’s constant.

h=6.63 x 10-34 Js

The Bohr Model of the atom• Bohr’s solar system model

-- shows why the H gives off only 4 wavelengths of visible light.

• He calculated the energy that the electrons did give off, and the differences in energy.

Bohr drew a picture like this

Electron loses energy

Electron gains energy

• These 4. No more. There is nothing between the levels– no “half-transitions”

Visible wavelengths produced by

hydrogen atoms

• The wavelengths are:– 410 nm (violet)– 434 nm (blue)– 486 nm (green)– 656 nm (red)

Other phenomena that teach us about electrons and light

The photoelectric effect

– Described by Einstein for his Nobel prize– Light knocks electrons off a metal– Indicates the particle nature of

light

One photon excites one electron


• Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle

– “You cannot determine both the location and momentum of a particle exactly.”

– If you measure one, you change the other unpredictably

– Leads to the wave and particle natures of everything

Gratuitous joke

Heisenberg was pulled over on the highway. The officer asks,

“Do you know how fast you were going?”

Heisenberg replies,

Electron Configurations

…and now, the rest of the story

Fe (2,8,14,2)

• --An electron configuration (EC) shows the location of all electrons in an atom or ion.

• --In an atom, number of electrons = number of protons = atomic number

• --Electrons are found around the nucleus of an atom in specific energy levels.

Levels have sublevels!

Levels have sublevels!

Sublevels have orbitals!

1st energy level

• -An s sublevel (spherical) has one orbital,

• -An orbital can hold two electronsZ

• The s refers to the sublevel

• 1H 1s1

• 2He 1s2

• The superscripts are the number of electrons in this sublevel.

2nd energy level

• -has 2s (bigger, still spherical) and 2p (has 3 bi-lobed orbitals in x, y, and z directions)

• -holds up to 8 electrons total

(2 in the s and 3 x 2 in the p)

Third energy level

has three sublevels, 3s, 3p, and 3d.

The 3s and 3p sublevels are similar in structure (but bigger) than the s and p sublevels seen before.

The 3d sublevel

• (and any d) has five orbitals of varying shapes.

• These orbitals can hold two electrons each for a total of ten electrons.

• The 3d sublevel is the highest energy sublevel of energy level 3, so high, in fact, that energy level 4 begins to fill (the 4s sublevel fills) before the 3d sublevel

See handout

The fourth energy level has four sublevels (notice the trend?) They are called 4s, 4p, 4d, and 4f. The s, p, and d sublevels are structured as before.

See handout

The f sublevel has seven orbitals, and can hold up to fourteen electrons.

The 5s sublevel is filled before the 4d, and the 5p and 6s sublevels precede the 4f.

Let’s look at a picture instead

You must remember this…

• s=1 orbital, 2 electrons

• p=3 orbitals, 6 electrons

• d=5 orbitals, 10 electrons

• f=7 orbitals, 14 electrons

Rules, rules, rules.

• Orbitals are filled according to three rules:– Aufbau (building up) principle—lower energy

sublevels are filled first– Pauli exclusion principle—electrons sharing

an orbital must have opposite spins– Hund’s Rule—when a sublevel has several

orbitals, electrons will distribute to separate orbitals with parallel spins, before sharing orbitals with opposite spins
